so are you a fan or not?

he has made some other fantastic videos (even better than these in my opinion)
- vorbholsn and rubber johnny are works of art (rubber johnny is more of a short 6 minute movie, which took 4 years to make)

all creations of chris cunningham i believe, not aphex twin himself.

aphex twin himself could be said to be far more than a simple dj - an electronic music producer who is quite a wizard with the technology i hear (was a child prodigy i believe)

yeah, think on was a bit boring too...though strange still - if i recall, that one was directed by the singer of pulp (jarvis cocker). forget where i heard that from, not sure if its true lol.

nearly forgot about nannou, lovely vid.

he mixes it up quite a lot...doesnt have many with the same constant sound as ventolin, but does have a few with lots of random beats (experimental types) and lots which are very melodic and sometimes quite beautiful (i think nannou is one of his most brilliant pieces, pretty mad but also very sweet).

anybody heard his album - drukqs.? its 2 discs...but if you play them both at once they kind of mesh together, pretty cool iv always though.
